[ Upstream commit 2ae6aaf76912bae53c74b191569d2ab484f24bf3 ] When removing a disk with replacement, the replacement will be used to replace rdev. During this process, there is a brief window in which both rdev and replacement are read as NULL in raid10_write_request(). This will result in io not being submitted but it should be. //remove //write raid10_remove_disk raid10_write_request mirror->rdev = NULL read rdev -> NULL mirror->rdev = mirror->replacement mirror->replacement = NULL read replacement -> NULL Fix it by reading replacement first and rdev later, meanwhile, use smp_mb() to prevent memory reordering. Fixes: 475b0321a4df ("md/raid10: writes should get directed to replacement as well as original.")

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
